Overlooked in the daily dog and pony media show is the driving force behind it all: the selection of a nonpolitician to our nation's highest office. Trump's agenda will not be allowed to be implemented, because if it is, it will result in other nonpoliticians having successful runs at the presidency in future elections. If nothing else, I hope he is able to set term limits on Congressional terms. If our nation's highest office has a limit on the maximum number of terms that can be served, why shouldn't Congress also have the same stipulations? A question I will toss out to the board; can President Trump issue Congressional term limits by executive order? Congress itself would never allow it to be passed otherwise.

Pretty sure that's more than just an executive order... ( but I agree, would be an awesome thing...)

Of course not.

Need a Constitutional amendment

I think you are correct to a degree. The politicians on both sides are mainly concerned with protecting their own status. They do not care at all for us plebeians. All we are is a giant piggy bank for them to steal from. A non-politician being elected is a threat to them, so they are circling the wagons.

Their main goal is to keep the population fighting amongst themselves so they can continue to rob us blind. As long as half the country continues to try to turn America into a socialist welfare society and go against the intentions of the Founders, the politicians will have carte blanche to screw us. The MSM is doing their part to foment discord & brainwash the willing masses, as well.

Even if he could use an executive order the next president would overturn that almost immediately when that person would get into office.

Trump has pulled back the curtain on the wizard and America can now see what a sham politicians are. They were quite comfortable in carrying on their WWF like squabbles in public to appear as enemies with different agendas, but Trump has revealed to all who have eyes that they are all on the same team and that teams only concern is it's own welfare and livelihood.

All of them eat from the same through and are told what to do by their donors not the voters. You think legislation comes from the legislators? Nope it comes from lawyers and cpa's from donors to ensure taxpayer funded revenue comes to them for the next 10-20 years. You can install all term limits you want the next puppet will be installed. To truly change Congress you have to get the donors out.

And you believe that the WWE Hall of Famer is the outlier?

How is it even possible that you could be fooled by this?

Spoiler Alert: Republican and Democratic politicians have united behind closed doors for at least 100 years.

But continue to play the fool while the establishment gets its way....again.

None of this matters.

Trust in the press and government are at all time lows across the board. Nobody has faith in our government anymore.

Trump is just the manifestation of public frustration. They can have all the meetings they want, until they get their act together, it's just going to be a cyclical series of "upsets."

You are correct.

DC would rather the country fail than have Trump succeed.

Exactly.

Trump is the establishment manifestation to quell the public frustration. Obama was exactly the same establishment manifestation. The establishment simply presented the two in different ways.

But guess what, folks, we still fell for it. How? I have no explanation other than sheer and utter ignorance.

You are good at mocking other people's beliefs about politicians as if you are the only person who knows the truth in America, but when asked for the solutions, you offer none.

Dude, you just described in detail the WWE-like charade that's going on in government; and in the next breath told me that the Hall of Famer of WWE-like charades is NOT part of it.

How can I possibly have an intelligent conversation with you after that?

Please explain to me how the Hall of Famer of WWE-like charades ISN'T part of the WWE charade.

I never said that Trump isn't part of the system, who knows. All I said was that he isn't a politician and they are upset that he isn't following the glaobalists blueprint.
If you want to show me proof that he is another globalists shill, please do.
But again, your great all knowing mind offers no solutions to the problem.

What's he doing about the establishment agenda in the Middle East?

What's he doing about the establishment Federal Reserve's stranglehold on this country?

What's he doing about the establishment military industrial complex?

Here, let me help you out; he's continuing those agendas faithfully as instructed when given the job.

But by all means continue to be fooled by the Hall of Famer of foolers. The establishment depends on it.

Your assessment is correct in regards to DC collusion.
Trump wasn't vetted by the Wash. establishment so he will not be allowed to be successful.

They are in the process of removing a Democratically elected POTUS.
